E-Dribble

Say what you want about his curriculum and tactics, but when this man is done teaching you firearm safety, you completely understand the inherent risk of handling them. The only downside I can see to his method is that it prohibits any question and answer sessions at the end.

Darwin works in mysterious, but incredibly effective ways.

If you decide to lead a life of crime and want to try skimming debit and credit card numbers via a fake ATM, my advice to you is to  be careful when you choose your mentors.

Protip #2:  When placing your ATM, try to steer clear of DEFCON conventions visited by thousands of security professionals.

A couple of days ago, a comment was posted on one of the spam posts stating that they almost fell for it and thanking me for my service.

It was at that point I realized that I had unwittingly provided a service.  There is a market for smartass.  More importantly though I wondered – How secure is your future if the only thing standing between you and financial ruin is some pompous dipshit that amuses himself by replying to Nigerian scam artists?  Oh, and he’s located at the far corner of the intardnet.  The corner that doesn ‘t even get swept.

Seriously.  I wrote these and posted them completely to amuse myself.  As the comments and emails began building, I came to realize that I have single-handedly kept a roof over these peoples’ heads.

And do they pay me for my invaluable service?  No.  I’ve never even received one of those cute talking cards.  The way I figure it, they would have lost everything, had it not been for me.  For this incredible feat, I feel that I deserve at least half of what they own.

It’s 50% more than the Nigerian would have left them.

Dearest Peter,

Are you so fucking lazy that you can no longer copy & paste another’s hard work?  You actually expect people to believe this bullshit? You sir, are not only a fucking moron, but you may be the laziest and most incompetent moron I’ve had the pleasure of receiving a 419 scam from yet.  I’m considering giving you my money if you promise to purchase and ingest some ground glass and then chase it with some cyanide.

While receiving a tabasco sauce enema.

Not only do they act as the chlorine in the gene pool, but they also do their part to ensure that their customers don’t breed.

Let’s face it.  If you think it’s a good idea to purchase medicine that affects the little general through nameless people via unsolicited bulk mail subscribing to this spelling methodology, then chances are great that you should not be allowed to influence the thoughts of those younger than you.

A report was recently published, linking pharmaceutical spam botnets to the Russian criminal underground. All of the Canadian pharmacy emails you get are actually routed to Ivan. Of interest in the report is the following quote:

However, IronPort-sponsored pharmacological testing revealed that two thirds of the shipments contained the active ingredient but were not the correct dosage, while the others were placebos. As a result, consumers take a significant risk of ingesting an uncontrolled substance from overseas distributors, the researchers say.

This is fantastic. Chances are great that the Viagra that the dipshits purchase will either do absolutely nothing, or may make them violently ill. Both of which will keep them from procreating.

And to think we were trying to put a stop to this.

Anybody that has read some of my past politically geared posts know that I don’t care who we end up with as our next president.  You probably also know that for the most part, I don’t even know the names of most of the hopefuls.

I am however, a sucker for light hearted humor, so any news I do get in regards to the political arena is in this genre.

Take for instance, Hillary’s refusal to bow out after repeated runner-up positions.  When asked why, she stated that she had to stay in the running in preparation for when Obama gets gunned down just like Robert Kennedy.

Somebody should check her Rolodex for an S. Sirhan.
